Steve Doocy this morning was joking that Brian Williams would claim that he had been in the battle of the Bulge, and then would correct his story to say that he was referring to dieting.
Hillary: “I was still not a very good liar back then. But I’ve been practicing every day since, and I’m a very good liar now. So . . . Vote for Hillary!”
I’m sure ol’ Dave’ll be making a lot of jokes at Williams’s expense....(not).
How about Sandy Burger and his famous socks which he stuffed classified material into and stole? Elizabeth Warren and her stealing from the taxpayers for 30 years by claiming to be a native american for the purposes of a free or discounted education and preferential admissions to such.
He was just hungry after that long flight and that caused him to be confused because no one had a Snickers bar to give him so he could regain his functions.
You know how some get when they are hungry.

12 times....Hilda only did it three times....
misremember = lying like a muslim rug
Alcee Hastings got away with taking bribes and was rewarded with a House seat.
Bob Torricelli almost got away with it, but the people turned on him and threw him out. Democrats still got away with keeping the seat by changing the election rules on the fly.
Rod Blagojevich did not get away trying to sell Obama's Senate seat, because Obama was up to his eyeballs in it and needed a fall guy.

If Iraq/Afghanistan War veterans are anything like Vietnam War veterans, you’ll see more and more of these “misremembering” episodes among your fellow veterans in the coming years.
I stopped attending reunions held by veterans of a unit I served with in Vietnam simply because it became too difficult for me to keep my mouth shut while they were telling “war stories” that weren’t even close to how I remembered it to have happened. I could tell by their intensity and attention to detail that they weren’t lying; they truly believed what they were saying was the truth to the point I’m sure they could have passed a polygraph.
Eventually, after several years of observing these “story tellers” at annual reunions, I think I figured out how this could have happened: In the last forty-five years, they had told this story thousands of times, and each time they told it, they embellished it just one tiny bit until their memory of the incident wasn’t even remotely similar to what actually happened, but they truly believed this was exactly how it happened.
At first, I thought these flights of imagination were harmless, but when someone started collecting these stories and publishing them in books claiming to be the History of the Vietnam War, it became serious. If this is happening with the history of the Vietnam War, what does it say about the histories of all the wars going back to Thermopylae and beyond, as the histories of these wars are also “eye witness” accounts recorded many years after these wars had ended?
I have noticed when authors are given a choice between how an action actually occurred and an account of the same action that has been embellished and exaggerated, they’ll publish the more exciting embellished and exaggerated account.
Williams is a lib who is all in for the Left. He works for an organization (NBC) that has only a passing association with the truth. So, the chances of him being fired/let go are slim and none.
What is this anyway? A democrat Liarama?
Why not they’re both liberal bitches.
I wish you were right. Sadly, they will probably just wait for all this to blow over so they don’t have to do anything about it. He might go on “vacation” for a week or so then come back when the coast is clear.
I worked a summer construction job as a kid and there was this guy Fuzzy. He read way too many soldier of fortune mags and apparently believed them.
He will do anything to eliminate the 2A. Evil personified.
And I thought Chris Dodd was bad.
“I don’t know what screwed up in my mind that caused me to conflate one aircraft with another.”
...here’s what is was Bri Bri...you’re a liar. A POS elitist, commie liar. BW doesn’t have the balls to fight for this country or his family so he makes sh&& up to make himself out to be a hero. He knows he’ll never be the man or woman that make up our military so he invents character. “What screwed up my mind”, my ass!
Let’s not forget that the great “hero” of the Vietnam War spent less than five months in country, and in those few months managed to write himself up for a Silver Star, Bronze Star and 3 Purple Hearts. In between all the daring acts of bravery he still managed to participate in war crimes and commit atrocities on the scale of “Ghenis Kahn”. He also claimed he saw other soldiers committing war crimes. That’s what the lying POS said before Congress when he dragged all the anti-war liars with him. Still waiting for the DOD to charge with him war crimes. Hell he admitted it. The lying POS said it because he knew it was a lie to start with, therefore impossible for him to be charged with any war crime. Scumbag Kerry should be listed right alongside Benedict Arnold as a traitor to this nation. That this worthless lowlife traitor is now Sec of State should be put in Ripley’s Believe it Or Not.
